Ishige okamurae and diphloroethohydoxycarmalol inhibit palmitic acid-impaired skeletal myogenesis and improve muscle regenerative potential

Obese sarcopenia is associated with palmitic acid (PA), an abundant circulating saturated fatty acid. This study examined a non-cytotoxic concentration of PA to provide mechanistic insights into PA-impaired skeletal myogenesis and potential medicinal and dietary interventions through edible brown seaweed, Ishige okamurae (IO). C2C12 cells were examined for myogenic markers, adipogenic factors, and regenerative capacity through growth regulators...
